Blood splash text

Hi!

I want to use Blender for the credits of a project. Ideally, names would splash into blood and then reform as a different name. If that’s not possible, names would just splash into blood and then a new name would appear somehow.

The effect that I’d roughly like to mimic appears at the end of this video:

Essentially, I would guess it’s some kind of slow motion water particle system…

If anyone knows how I could create this effect, it would be greatly appreciated!

make the text then make it a fluid object
Do you know how to use the fluid simulator?
if not, you can find tutorials on Blendercookie.com and Blenderguru.com

Alternatively, you can experiment with control objects in your fluid simulation. Here is an example of what you can achieve with control objects:

I have done the same in old version of Blender
